Visited twice in as many months for the arcade machines which never seem to be powered on. Only one was on so started a game original donkey Kong 1981. Was ushered out by staff mid game. Shame, they have the kit but never think to use it?!

Was there for food and a bit of gaming. Stayed all night for the gaming and cocktails. The staff were great, food and drinks were amazing. The resident evil G&T cocktail especially. I can't recommend the loading bar enough.

HIDDEN CHARGES - please advertise that you expect people to spend a certain amount of money per hour before they sit and order things. Don't advertise as a free board game bar if you arent - other board game bars in london charge to sit and play but overall are actually more cost effective. Staff are usually nice, a little rude the last time I came here but that's ok, i work in hospitality and I know what it's like when you're busy. Have been coming here for years but had one of the worst experiences of my life at the brighton branch, and the customer service when trying to contact via email and instagram has been awful/nonexistent. Then this company BLATANTLY LIES in their response so that future customers aren't put off. BEWARE before you come here. I'd recommend the board game cafe in london bridge, or the one in brixton instead.
